Samurai Jeans

[thislittlepiggy]

my s5000bk drags on the floor with shoes. it's pretty annoying,and i'm really tempted to taper them to 710bk specs.

[azn8oi]

make one or two small cuffs.

if anyone knows and can confirm what denim denim did they use on the s526xxII ? thanks!

i want this type of fit, was thinking the 710

i wear size 31 in nudies and 30 in APC...

how does the 710 stretch and how do you go about when you first get them, can you just wear them or do most people soak or wash them before?

what size do you guys recommend im about 6' 150pds

[monook]

bad bad bad, read the thread.

also weighing a certain amount isnt a good point of reference for jean sizing

I've just bought my first pair of samurais (s5000vx size 29, true waist 30)

Here are the pics post-soak. I like them so far since I was looking for a more relaxed fit. I'm just hoping they won't stretch too much.

What do you guys think.

[bye4now12]

Those looks amazing

[jpgm]

orbitaal - really good fit dude, close to perfect....they fit especially well in the seat.

azn8oi - you beat the hell out of those.....nice stuff! they look great.

edmond - what can i say......you are a fucking maniac! you need to post pics and a list of your entire collection, im not sure im not alone in saying im eager to see it.

[edmond]

thanks j. but its hard to do it here.. people might get angry at me again

[edmond]

hey orbital if ever those stretch out turn them inside out and give them a hot soak for around 30 mins and hang dry theyll shrink back to how you wan them to fit i do that on my 21oz s5000vx which ive been wearing everyday..

[corter]

I think everyone realized you're not just some kid with a ton of money buying up all the cool jeans, you really like all this stuff and you're very helpful now with it, too. I wanna see collection pics!!!

[morse9443]

Jesus Demon, nothing compared to whose Samurai collection? BIG? Really nice though. Feel free to send me a few if you're ever feeling overwhelmed;)

[bye4now12]

Demonito, would you mind posting some fit pics of your S710s? I think your S5000's say you're a 35 inch waist, and I'd like to see the fit of the S710's on a bigger person, I'm a 34 in the S0500's

[corter]

thats crazy edmond! so much good stuff though, i'm sure you'll wear em all eventually too. I'd love to see like...your whole collection, i remember the pictures from a while back you posted, i was so jealous haha

[orbitaaal]

bye4now12, jpgm, dino might! thanks guys! Thanks demonito for the tip. By the way, that's an impressive collection you got there. Nice one!

I'm going to Osaka tomorrow, and then Tokyo after that.

Anyone know the locations of stores (preferably with English speaking staff) where I'll be able to try on some Sammies.

Also, despite me always asking it, how should they fit unwashed if I want a slim fit out of 5000vxs and 710s? I know I'm going to size down at least 1, maybe 2 on each. But knowing how much things like the waist will shrink by, as well as things like the thigh, knee and hem would be nice.

Not hating, I just don't much see the point of having that many pairs of unworn jeans, you know?

Tabris - check out the jeans in Tokyo thread - tons of info there on Tokyo. Americaya in Ueno, and Bears in Shimokitazawa both had Sammy's. I can't remember which brands, but a number of the stores mentioned in the Tokyo thread carried both raw and 1-wash versions of the same model, so that's another way of better determining your fit. Have fun!

[kidkorea]

Polish those look great...what model?

[polishmike]

s0500xx same as the ones cheep posted recently

some people collect guitars... or cars... or pokemon cards.

[m1sterko]

holy damn, edmond you crazy son of a gun. thats mad crazy. are you ever gonna wear them all? or they're jsut collector items.

[edmond]

thanks guys

bye4now i wear size 35 on s5000vx 21oz cause they are sized alittle bit small i basically wear size 33 on samurai i sozed up 2 just to be sure and i want a more relzed fit.

and yes im just collecting

[bye4now12]

So were you a 33 in the S710s?

[edmond]

yes im a size 33 on s710xx 19oz

[soundbomber]

What's the point in having so many pairs though? E-props? Self-esteem issues? It's equivalent to those kids who collect a bunch of shoes and never wear them.
